+* Win32_DLL_Release\zlib1.dll       DLL build
+* Win32_DLL_Debug\zlib1d.dll        DLL build (debug version)
+* Win32_DLL_ASM_Release\zlib1.dll   DLL build using ASM code
+* Win32_DLL_ASM_Debug\zlib1d.dll    DLL build using ASM code (debug version)
+* Win32_LIB_Release\zlib.lib        static build
+* Win32_LIB_Debug\zlibd.lib         static build (debug version)
+* Win32_LIB_ASM_Release\zlib.lib    static build using ASM code
+* Win32_LIB_ASM_Debug\zlibd.lib     static build using ASM code (debug version)
+

+3) Select "Build | Clean".
+
+4) Select "Build | Build ... (F7)".  Ignore warning messages about
+   not being able to find certain include files (e.g. alloc.h).
+

+   select "Build | Execute ... (Ctrl+F5)".
+
+
+To use:
+
+1) Select "Project | Settings (Alt+F7)".
+   Make note of the configuration names used in your project.

+   of your project.  Open "zlib.dsp".
+
+3) Select "Build | Configurations".
+   For each configuration of your project:
+   3.1) Choose the zlib configuration you wish to use.
+   3.2) Click on "Add".
+   3.3) Set the new zlib configuration name to the name used by
+        the configuration from the current iteration.
+
+4) Select "Build | Set Active Configuration".
+   Choose the configuration you wish to build.
+
+5) Select "Build | Build ... (F7)".
+
+6) If you built an executable program, select
+   "Build | Execute ... (Ctrl+F5)".
+
+
+Note:
+
+To build the ASM-enabled code, you need Microsoft Assembler
+(ML.EXE).  You can get it by downloading and installing the
+latest Processor Pack for Visual C++ 6.0.
